Tutorial: LinkedIn Basics.

I know so many people have lost their jobs due to COVID-19 over the last few months. Personally, I’ve lost a big chunk of my clients and associated income.

So, I thought it’d be appropriate to go over some LinkedIn basics on The Bitter Lemon Patreon this month — LinkedIn is the biggest job search platform with more than 500 million monthly users!

In this video, I’m sharing a screen recording with a short 10-slide presentation about LinkedIn, and then I’ll take you over to my profile and show you where everything is.

If you enjoy this one, let me know and I’ll create some more for other platforms. And/or… if you want more in-depth information about LinkedIn, I can make a part II video for next month. Let me know.

What is a Patreon? It’s a channel behind a paywall that allows creatives to make exclusive content and an income 🙂 Truthfully, I have been telling my blogging students about Patreon for awhile now, but I was never quite sure what I’d use it for.

But over the last few months, I’ve realized there’s a gap in some of the services I offer. Yes, many of my blogging students sign up for 1:1 instruction or a consultation, but there are also students out there that may not be ready for a 1:1 for a multitude of reasons.

The Patreon platform is a way I can offer exclusive content to you — or to anyone interested — at an approachable price. The Bitter Lemon’s Patreon channel is loosely being called “Blogging & Books” because I want it to be a place where I can share blogging tips and tricks, but also share thoughts on all of the books I read!

By signing up for The Bitter Lemon’s Patreon, you’re supporting me and my content — you’re helping me live my dream of being able to survive off my ideas, my content and my creations. It really does mean a lot to me.

If you’re still unsure, I’ll be posting new content on Patreon at least once each week, so stay tuned to see what I’ve got coming next!
